Alright I'm new to this and got my tl last month. I need help. I'm looking at getting rota grids 17x9 +25, 225/45/17 but I'm no sure if they will rub or not. I'm not lowering the car for now and don't want to roll the finders. I know 17 is small but that's all I can get for now. Any advice?

save up for 18s at least. Don't settle for 17s when you will wanna go bigger. You are just throwing money away and they won't look good. Also if you wanna lower the car in the future, don't. Lower it first, then get wheels.

on the other note, 17x9 +25 won't rub and you don't need to roll fenders

I wanted to get teh same setup, but I went with 19s and the XXR 522. Though i do prefer the look of the ROTA Grids more.

The reason I'm no doing 18s is because I have two almost band new sets of tires for 17s from my other car. So 17s might be small for the tl but that's what I'm going to go with for now. Will the offset make it flush or push it out past the car a little?
